Proposal
Is there any shortlist of issues/tasks to be solved to make Testcontainers work on WCOW? I'd like to help and enable native WCOW support. Creating multi-arch/multi-platform images for Ryuk (draft) should only be a matter of time (been there for my own projects), but I suspect there might be harder issues to be solved?
Some details have already been discussed at #2960 with the docs stating that native support for WCOW isn't currently avilable.
